Challenge

To migrate the existing storage system to a scalable and cost-effective flash solution to meet the high I/O requirements and backup processes of energy management systems.

Solution

NetApp All-Flash improved the systems’ performance and capacity. With deduplication and inline compression, the three systems were consolidated into one MetroCluster. Fujitsu’s on-demand model also offers scalability and flexible expansion options.
